Who can resist Cool Whip, pudding, bananas, and vanilla wafers? I know that I can’t. Granted, my family and I are suckers for sweet treats but c’mon, this dessert is simply dreamy. And guess what? Even though there is sugar in this southern banana pudding, it’s still a healthier option than some other desserts. It’s a win across the board in my book.
Sounds amazing to me!
